 This is the good part! Depression is treatable. Depression can be managed. Depression can be overcome. We have dedicated these pages to providing stories of hope and survival from a range of people just like us!
Back from the Brink
A very dear former colleague of one of our team has compiled a book of interviews with a broad range of people who have been through depression and recovered. It ignited a great deal of energy, enthusiasm and direction for much of the content that appears in this area of the JOBX site and we expect that our relationship with him will help us do great things.
Graeme Cowan’s ‘Back From The Brink’ contains invaluable information for people suffering from depression and their loved ones.
Graeme wants as many people as possible to benefit from its content. Because of this, he has kindly given us free electronic distribution rights to his ebook so that you can take a look for yourself. ‘Back from the Brink’ truly is an uplifting book about reaching up and out of the black fog of depression. We hope it inspires you as it has us!

The power and honesty of the contributors to Graeme’s book got us thinking about how so many people in so many different situations have such broad experiences with depression. We came up the idea of pulling together stories from ‘people just like us’.
